Town Clerk Sooba expresses fear for her life

TOWN Clerk of the Georgetown Mayor and City Council (M&CC), Ms. Carol Sooba said yesterday she fears for her life ever since the airing of the ‘Walter Rodney Groundings’ programme on Channel Nine television last Sunday evening. She told the Guyana Chronicle that around 18:00hrs that day, a friend called and urged her to tune in to HBTV 9 and view the show on which Working People’s Alliance (WPA) executive, Mr. Desmond Trotman and another man, whose name she could not recall, were speaking.
Sooba alleged that she was described as the “wicked” Town Clerk, and a call was made to citizens to ensure that she does not get safely from her home to her office at City Hall.
She lamented that because she is fearful for her safety, she will take her complaint to the Police.
In the meantime, though, she said she is trying to obtain a copy of the Sunday tape.
When contacted yesterday, Trotman declared that, to his knowledge, nothing was said on the programme that threatens the life of Sooba.
But he said he is prepared to fully respond once Sooba presents all the details.
